I’ve been looking for some really good books and resources for DIY Halloween monster makeup and all the signs seem to be pointing towards Dick Smith’s Do-It-Yourself Monster Make-Up Handbook – “Originally printed in 1965 and offered through Famous Monsters of Filmland Magazine, The Dick Smith Do-It-Yourself Monster Make-Up Handbook remains one of the best resources for beginning make-up artists. Using easy-to-find materials and less complicated techniques, Smith gives step-by-step instructions on how to create 14 unique and popular monsters. The Fifth Printing offers an introduction by Rick Baker and updated techniques.” – Aboyd has it for $13.20 & Google search.
